Dual-purpose clamping socket
A dual-purpose clamping socket contains a main body provided with two clamping pieces at its top end for clamping to fix an electronic product, such as a mobile phone or a PDA. The front end of the main body is a semi-oval having a vibration motor arranged therein, and the front end further combined with an arcuate massage mantle for covering components inside. A battery pack and a switch are also disposed in the main body for driving and controlling the vibration motor. Therefore, the clamping socket of the present invention is a dual-purpose device for clamping an electronic product, particularly in car, or for massaging.
1. Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to a clamping socket for clamping an electronic product, and more specifically, to a dual-purpose clamping structure that can serve for a clamping socket and a massager concurrently.
2. The Prior Arts
Thanks to the booming wireless communication technology, many powerful handheld electronic products are now available in the market, such as mobile phones and personal digital assistants (PDAs). Taking PDA as an example, in addition to recording of events, some of the most powerful PDA also features satellite positioning by GPS. Such devices are often fixed inside a car for guiding drivers and a device for fixing them is needed inside the car.
As most white-collars are in lack of sports, massage is usually deemed a good way to alleviate and relieve people's tensioned nerves and backbones. However, in view of the high-price bulky massage chair, a delicate and simple massage structure of the present invention is therefore provided to a clamping socket used for clamping an electronic product.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTIONThe primary object of the present invention is to provide a clamping socket that can also serve for a massager, such that the present invention is a clamping socket for clamping a mobile phone or a PDA in car, or a massager whenever desired.
Another object of the present invention is to provide a clamping socket that can also serve for a flashlight because of an illumination device disposed at the tail end of a main body of the clamping socket.
For more detailed information regarding advantages or features of the present invention, at least one example of preferred embodiment will be described below with reference to the annexed drawings.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGSThe related drawings in connection with the detailed description of the present invention to be made later are described briefly as follows, in which:
With reference to the drawings and in particular to
A specific structure is provided to the front end of the main body 1 to make the present invention a massager possible according to
The vibration motor 2 is basically an electrical motor combined with a counterweight 24 arranged at the front end of an eccentric shaft 23 of the motor to thereby obtain the vibration effect, or the counterweight may be disposed centrally with a non-uniform weight distribution.
Referring to
As indicated in
Summarizing the above, the present invention has a vibration motor arranged in a clamping socket to enable the socket become a massager in addition to a clamper. The clamping socket could also serve for a flashlight because of an illumination device arranged at the tail end of the main body thereof.
In the above described, at least one preferred embodiment has been described in detail with reference to the drawings annexed, and it is apparent that numerous changes or modifications may be made without departing from the true spirit and scope thereof, as set forth in the claims below.
Claims
1. A clamping socket, comprising:
- a main body of clamping socket having two clamping pieces, in which at least one clamping piece is movable;
- a vibration motor disposed at one end in the main body, in which a semi-spherical massage mantle for covering components is arranged at the front end of the main body, and a rotation shaft of the motor is eccentrically coupled with a counterweight;
- a battery pack arranged in the main body for providing electric power to the vibration motor; and
- a switch positioned laterally on the main body for controlling ON/OFF operation of the vibration motor.
2. The clamping socket as claimed in claim 1, wherein an illumination device is further disposed at the tail end of the main body.
3. The clamping socket as claimed in claim 2, wherein the illumination device further comprises a lens arranged at the tail end of the main body and an inside LED.
4. The clamping socket as claimed in claim 1, wherein a front end of the rotation shaft of the vibration motor is coupled with a counterweight having a heavier corner.
5. The clamping socket as claimed in claim 1, wherein the main body is formed by locking an upper and a lower cover face-to-face; the front end thereof is a semi-oval; a fixing piece formed with a semi-circular recess in different sizes is arranged at the front and the rear respectively inside the covers and cogged at the front end and the rear end of the vibration motor.
6. The clamping socket as claimed in claim 1, wherein the battery pack is resided on the back of the main body and composed of several batteries; and a battery chamber and a battery cover are arranged on the back of the main body for accommodating the battery pack.
